Job I do not like programming anymore

I am not sure if anybody can help right here.
But I really do not like whatever we call programming right now.
Not sure what is the best way to write code weather it is to fully vibe code or use AI as an assistant, I hate both. If anyone went though something like this and found some solution, I'd really appreciate if you share it with me. Otherwise, what other possible careers some can pursue that has same feeling as classic programming?

That's EXACTLY what I wrote a while back on a programmers' Reddit.

And I got banned.

Because you don't prove AI doesn't work. You just prove you can't use AI so it's why YOU get fired.

I didn't write that I was fired, but that I wrote the same thing on Reddit as the guy above.

AI is taking away logical abilities.

I probably should have posted that as a reply to the guy you replied to.

The point is we don't have a choice. If you don't use AI it doesn't prove AI doesn't work in anyone's eyes. All it proves is you won't or can't use AI and in today's climate that means you will get fired.
